Suggestion to Bush: Privatize the 'Iraqi War'!!
You and your dumb supporters want it, then privatize it. You raise all the money you need and hire all the 'contractors' to carry it out (surge the way). All members of the US military can come home immediately and the Congress can refuse to give another taxpayer dime to it.

You broke it, you and your war-profiteers, can stay there forever, trying to fix it.

2. But The American Taxpayers Are Paying For It. It He Wants To...
privatize it - have the corporations and mercenaries pay for it. I see a SNL bit here. Military running around Iraq with corporate advertisements on their uniforms. Kinda like NASCAR. Imagine the Humvees - Green and Yellow BP Logos, etc. This war is being brought to you by.......(fill in the blank).

3. Mercenaries are the problem already world wide
otherwise it would be a solution. (the thing is that mercenaries follow no laws and end up making things worse - and kill way too many people)
